That's a really good point - also, Dublin-London is a bit of an outlier because it's from one major airport to another reasonably easy to access airport (Stansted, a 47 minute £12 train ride from Liverpool St.)
If I had to fly from Glasgow to Paris I'd be heading to airports over an hour out of the city on each end of the trip and it would be brutal. As it is, getting to Dublin airport is kind of a pain; I usually take bus 16 or 41 but I wish they would just put a DublinBikes station at the airport.
As a broke college student I flew Paris->Glasgow on RyanAir for €0, only paying the €10 of tax...I was very excited until I spent more money and time riding busses to and from the airports than on the flight itself.
Also, the Beauvais airport (at the time, I don't know if they've expanded) was less an 'airport' and more a doublewide that they parked some planes next to.
